Have you tried <xsl:copy-of select="$var"/>?

If you want nodes (i.e. those HTML elements, attributes, any text nodes 
containing data) in output, then don't turn it into a string, just copy it. 
(Nodes held in a variable actually constitute what's called a "Result Tree 
Fragment", which is designed to work just the way you want it, no 
stringifying necessary.)

I hope that helps,
Wendell
